Can someone please explain to me why such a basic instrument is so expensive?

It’s not exactly cutting edge technology requiring sophisticated manufacturing processes.

You’d think something as simple as a coach gun would sell for $150 tops. Yes?

I'm by far an expert but have seen some really well made break shotguns.
Usually when the action in closed the fit is so tight the line between the two pieces of steel is almost invisible.That must take many manhours by craftsmen.
A semi or pump is expected to have 'play' between the parts.
A nice break action shotgun is a thing of beauty.
